  • Ok, forget about the car. Take the shooting of Daniel Shaver. There was a body cam footage and he was shot while crawling on his arms and knees on the floor, unarmed. He was shoot because he got confused by conflicting orders shouted a him by two cops and for a second looked behind him. The cop was found not guilty by the jury. Philando Castile was shot when reaching for his documents after he was told by the cop to get his documents - acquitted by the jury. Yes, in some cases when the shooting is absolutely out of this world outrageous the cop will get convicted. If there’s a tiniest sliver of justification (he was holding a sandwich, he reached for something, she moved) it’s pretty much impossible to convict a cop in US. In this case there’s way more than enough to acquit the ICE agent.





  • 100% agree. EU is totally failing on messaging ever since Trump won his first term. They still pretend everything will be fine and they can maintain the status quo indefinitely. I see two options here:

    1. EU wakes the fuck up and realized they can only survive together, stands up to Trump and unites around a common cause (both politicians and citizens). Trade war will hit us hard but we can save our freedom

    2. EU continues to fall apart while every country only cares about their own short term interest, each country falls under the influence of USA, China or Russia and becomes a puppet state

    Right now we’re heading straight for option 2.






  • I don’t think so. Taking over Greenland will look a bit like changing the name of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America. US will say they now control Greenland, Denmark will say they don’t. There will be no invasion because US already has a military base there. Denmark will not attack it because it would be foolish and pointless. US will probably say that Greenland residents can get US passports and establish some parallel administration. And then, at some point, when they want prove they actually own Greenland US will provoke some conflict. Maybe they will take control of the international airport or something. Denmark will back down and everyone will accept it’s US territory while opposing it officially.

    With Canada this will not work. They would have to actually invade it and I don’t think they are there yet. Bombing of Mexico will happen first.
